Prior interventional BPH therapy did not affect the oncologic outcomes nor did it increase the risk of rectourethral fistula or ED in sexually performing patients prior to cryosurgery. Prior interventional BPH therapy was associated with increased risk of urinary retention and incontinence after primary whole-gland prostate cryoablation for prostate cancer.
